Advance Filter Isn't Working - To Remove Duplicates
Dec 6, 2006
I'm having an issue where advnace filter isnt working and I need to get all of the unique entries.
I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I got some erros saying the numbers were being pu as text so I changed the cell tpe to a custom with 00000000 because the unique number I need to filter is 10 digits long.
As another alternative I would paypal some one a few bux if they can help me just compare two lists and make a report with the number of netries that show up in one list and not the other and vice versa.

I am trying to remove duplicates from a submitted list of data with alphanumeric data such as BK123034, WKD 4754 in the list. Visually, I can see that there are duplicates when I sort the list into order. However, when I use 'remove duplicates', it says that there are none. I have tried formatting all as text, numbers and general, but no better. I have also tried the formula =or(a1=A2, A2=A3) and they all come out as false.

I'm having a problem deleting duplicates from list in excel. I’ve attached a sample. I’ve tried the following:
1-Advanced Filter, Unique Records Only
2-Remove Duplicates function in Excel 07.
3-Pivot Table
4-Colour Conditional Formatting, sorting by colour
5-B2=IF(A2=A3,”Dup”,”Not-Dup”). The entire column returns “Not-Dup”
6-I’ve tried to resolve using the fix shg & teylyn suggested to Hillto in this thread, but am unable to get the ‘Numeric’ Keypad to appear in the ‘Find’ Function.

I just came across an error in one of my workbooks where I had duplicate headers on a few columns
So When I used AdvancedFilter to " cut" the data into several workbooks for end users, the data in the first column was pasted 2x and the second columns was ignored altogether.
Headers since changed and that fixed the problem.
I'm just curious why the second column was ignored altogether

I have a excel sheet auto generated by a process in which there are 4 columns and 150 Rows. One column has dates data in DD-MMM-YYYY (15-May-2007) format..but the datatype of that cell is not Date. When I click on any date let say I selected 24-Mar-2007 in formula bar instead of displaying 3/24/2007 it displays as it is 24-Mar-2007.
But when i double click on this cell it shift to right alignment and display date format 3/24/2007 in formula bar. I have to create a formula using which I can see only some rows of define date range. Means if i define range in two cells 01-Jan-2007 and 01-Jun-2007. The sheet will display only rows having this criteria. But due to this datatype problem before putting the criteria I have to double click each of the row to convert it to Date. RightClick Format cells option is also not help full in this.

I'm trying to use the advance filter for multiple criteria in one column. It works fine if the criteria is ="*10*" (ie where the cell in the range has 10 in the string) plus other = criteria. What I cannot get to work is where the range doesn't equal 10 in the string. I've tried ="<>*10*" and other variations to no joy.

This is a sort-of bizarre query I have.
I have a large array of data which I'm filtering out and copying to a new spreadsheet using an advanced filter. I have 2 filter criteria, one works... the other doesn't.
The second criteria is supposed to filter out rows that have blank cells in column C or D. I tried various things:
a. at first I tried following:
Column header: Name |Surname
Criteria: <>"" |<>""
b. since it didn't work I tried that
Column header: Name |Surname
Criteria: =<>""""" |=<>"""""
I also tried <>0 and <>null with absolutely no joy.
c. once I figured out that doesn't work either, I tried:
Column header: (empty)
Criteria: =OR(NOT(ISBLANK(C2)),NOT(ISBLANK(D2)))
now, the last one did have some effect, most of the empty-celled rows have been filtered out. However the filter persistently picks up ONE row that has blanks in column C2 and D2. I checked the data to check if the cell is really blank and it's as blank as it gets.
Obviously, I need help. It's been 3 days and I still can't figure out what's wrong with my filter. Is there a way of fool proofing the criteria, so that it will filter out all cells that are or appear to blank?

I have many large arrays of climate data. I am trying to find an array criteria formula that would filter out those years from a variation around a given year. Like this example, to filter out those years B10 (47.8) plus or minus B12 (3.339).

I need to filter out data which displays only a few categories of information at the same time in the same column. For example, column A: David, Susan and William. After filtering the data, it will show David, Susan and william information. I have tried custom filter, but it only allows 2 conditions. I need to show more than 2 conditions of data. I have tried working out using office assistant guide on Multiple Criteria in one column to no avail. Only shows a single cell.

I bring in data with these same columns A thru J. I do not know how many rows will be comming in. I have create a macro that uses the advanced filter. I have a criteria range set up on sheet 2 with 6 variables, the main data is on sheet 1. This works fine if I use all 6 variables. I wish I could select from a list box which of the 6 or all variables I need(I might select 2,3 or more variables), & have that information populate the criteria range. I only filter in place(no copying), there is only filtering on column B, the label for the criteria range will always be "Name" it will be located on sheet 2 D:1. Is this possible or should I be trying some other function? Here is the macro that uses all 6 criteria. I have searched and could not find what I was looking for.
'add criteria range
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("D1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Name"
Range("D2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "e11*"
Range("D3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "e12*"
Range("D4").Select.........

I recorded a macro to perform an Advanced Filter. I then adapted the range to & LastRow. My question is, can this now be adapted to remove the Select so the sheets are not selected when this is run.
Sheets("CIT Results").Select
Sheets("Open Calls").Range("A1:I" & LastRow).AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
CriteriaRange:=Sheets("Open Calls").Range("N5:V8"), CopyToRange:=Range("Q50"), Unique:=False
Moderators, can you please edit the Thread title. It should be "Advance Filter From and To Non Active Sheet"

Is it possible to use an advance filter to detect blank cells? Or can the criteria be set to detect all cells that don't contain a letter e.g. "Y"?

How do you remove entries from a column such that only unique entires are left?
Say the spreadsheet contains only a single column:
david
kris
tony
hayley
kristy
john
david
test
hello
david
I tried an "advanced filter" with "unique records only" checked. It gets rid of one david, but not 2 (there are originally 3 of them, and we want to leave 1)
This is the result.
david
kris
tony
hayley
kristy

The name is in Column F the employee Number is the 020820 and we want to only have the latest date in the last column.
So out of this data above. The bottom one with the 2/11/2008 is the one we want to keep.
And delete those other 2.
The next group has duplicate names 10 of them. But only want to keep the most recent.

if anyone has some vba code that can help with keeping latest duplicates when pasting to another worksheet.
Basically, I have a worksheet with YTD data and another worksheet with data for the current month. I need to paste the data from the Month to the YTD sheet. However, if the data (a reference number in column A) already exists, the row from the Month data should be pasted over the duplicate in the YTD sheet, and if it doesn't exists, it should paste it as a new row.
At the moment I'm just copying the whole lot to the YTD sheet and then try to remove duplicates, however, once it's pasted, I don't know which ones to remove.....

I have the following formula
=IFERROR(INDEX('Data - CURRENT'!$B$2:$B$2500,MATCH(LARGE('Data - CURRENT'!$BA$2:$BA$2500,ROW(A1)),
'Data - CURRENT'!$BA$2:$BA$2500,0)),"")
This worked wonderfully until a duplicate crept in to Column B. Now there is the potential for many more duplicates. Column B holds an 8 digit numerical number. I am just struggling to add in a parameter that ignores any duplicates that have been added

We can distinguish between each entry by the comma - but how can I get Excel to look inside one specific cell at text and remove these?

how can i remove duplictes from a colum. For example:
Column C:
A;B;C;A;D;E;A;G;B *(A is three times here and B two times!)
F;G;H;I;F*(F is here two times)
I would like to have the duplicates removed from each cell in column C so that each member is unique in the cell. The example would then look like:
Column C: (after removing the dupplicates A and B in first cell and F in second cell)
A;B;C;D;E;G
F;G;H;I

i have a wordlist containing about 0.5 Million words in col.A and Millions of meanings in Col.B. Now in Col. A there are many duplicates. I would like to make one cell of all duplicates in col.A and put their meanings together in B with seperator ";". Its very important that there are no duplicates in Col. B.
For example:
Col. A Col.B
w1 m1;m2;m3
w1 m1;m2;m5
w2 m23;m24
w2 m50
Now after running the macro the list should look like:
Col.A Col.B
w1 m1;m2;m3;m5
w2 m23;m24;m50
The words in col. A are alphabetically ordered and all the duplicates are followed by each other.
